I do not have a spare ape to bring. They are talking about bringing down the Denver airport mustang (Sculpture of mustang at Denver airport draws wild reaction - USATODAY.com) so maybe I could check that as a luggage.

That said, I may have to take you up on that offer! So many things I learned about through my travels that I'd have a hard time finding anywhere stateside, not to mention how awesome that place is in general...
